I can't believe I missed on August 9th, so I'm going to celebrate it today along with ! šš¤£
š Happy National Book Lovers Day! š
Today feels a little more special now that I can say Iām not only a book lover, but also a published author and contributing author of ! šš
Being part of this book has given me an entirely new appreciation for what it takes to put your story, experiences, lessons, and heart onto the pages of a book. Writing my chapter was an incredible experience and it also gave me an even deeper respect for the authors who sit down and write an entire book from beginning to end. The dedication, discipline, vulnerability, editing, rewriting, and perseverance that goes into that accomplishment is truly something to celebrate. š
On National Book Lovers Day, Iām especially grateful for two of my best friends who give meaning to being true "Full-Book" authors! š¤£Traci Kay Davis Author for writing her first novel, and Nicole Morrison for writing her memoir, .
Traci, your dedication and discipline I witnessed when writing your novel was nothing short of amazing. I watched the hours, the rewrites, the determination, and the heart you poured into Because They Loved Him, and I couldnāt be prouder of you. š
Nicole, your willingness to share your story so openly in Growing Up Happy in a Lonely World is something I truly admire. It takes incredible courage and vulnerability to turn your own experiences into words and then trust the world with them. ā¤ļø
And Iām incredibly thankful that Financial Trendsetters 4 has given me the opportunity to add a few pages of my own story to someone elseās bookshelf. š
Hereās to the books we love, the authors who write them, and the stories still waiting to be told! šāØ
